    Just got this, and changed 777 onto everything and I'm running Apache 1.3.29, PHP version 4.3.5, and MySql 4.0.18-standard.

    Seemed to be working great, asked for number of fields, then asked for names of fields, wrote them in, press next and I get a:

    The resource cannot be displayed
    The resource you are looking for cannot be opened by your browser.

    I notice there is a a number of process files in the directory:

    process.php
    process2.php
    process3.bak.php
    process3.php

    Not sure if I was supposed to change one to process.php depending on the situation, but there was nothing in the instructions about that. In any case, I can't even get off the ground with this one, and I can't understand why. Can anyone help? Thanks.

      BTW, this is error code 406. I looked it up at w3.org. It defines an error 406 as:

      "10.4.7 406 Not Acceptable
      The resource identified by the request is only capable of generating response entities which have content characteristics not acceptable according to the accept headers sent in the request.

      Unless it was a HEAD request, the response SHOULD include an entity containing a list of available entity characteristics and location(s) from which the user or user agent can choose the one most appropriate. The entity format is specified by the media type given in the Content-Type header field. Depending upon the format and the capabilities of the user agent, selection of the most appropriate choice MAY be performed automatically. However, this specification does not define any standard for such automatic selection.

            Note: HTTP/1.1 servers are allowed to return responses which are
            not acceptable according to the accept headers sent in the
            request. In some cases, this may even be preferable to sending a
            406 response. User agents are encouraged to inspect the headers of
            an incoming response to determine if it is acceptable.

      If the response could be unacceptable, a user agent SHOULD temporarily stop receipt of more data and query the user for a decision on further actions. "

      This might as well be in Greek.

      I don't know if this helps troubleshoot it, but I also run php nuke on my site. I have a module called nukewrap which allows html pages to be viewed in nuke as if they were a module themselves. The one referencing a page on another server works fine, but since I started getting these 406 errors in formgen, the link from my own server which was working fine before is giving a 406 error too.

      Is there some global set (if that's the right word) that could be causing this perhaps for the entire site. Dang, wish I understood php code better.

      process.php, process2.php and process3.php are all used... you shouldn't be touching or even looking at those files if you are just trying to use the program. Anyway, it seems like your PHP installation is screwed up, more specifically the integration in to the webserver. Also, the program doesn't change any of ur settings, so it can't have possibly caused your php nuke to die. There is definately something wrong with your PHP/Webserver settings and/or installation. If you subscribe to some hosting service, I suggest you contact them and get them to take care of the issue. Otherwise, just reinstall your webserver and PHP.

      I've been troubleshooting this a bit, and the only difference I can see between now and before was the addition of the mod_security module which many webhosts are starting to install. It has a list of rules, dealing with phpmyadmin vulnerabilities and a few others. You can read about them here.

      http://www.modsecurity.org/db/rules/

      Anyway, I'll keep you posted. But if any of the rule code looks familiar, this might be an issue occuring with increased frequency and might want to be reviewed.

      I seem to be having the exact same problem as you after trying to install 2.07b from scratch

      Apache version 1.3.31 (Unix)
      PHP version 4.3.7
      MySQL version 4.0.18-standard

      Can't seem to get past that 406 Error, I used a different browser but it's the same outcome.
